About UWACAM
Designed for DIVEVOLK Seatouch cases and developed in collaboration with award-winning underwater cinematographer Matthias Lebo, this app is easy to use, featuring large, clear controls that enable effortless, stunning video and photo captures.
It is packed with professional features typically found in DSLR cameras, provides automatic UWACOLOR* processing for videos and photos either real-time or postprocessed to enhance colors in captures, supports LOG format for enhanced color grading, includes built-in color lookup tables (LUTs), and provides manual mode capturing, user presets, histogram, focus peaking, zebra, and much more.
Integrated Vizalyzer AI technology allows you to analyze your video and photo captures, retrieving valuable information on marine life forms (internet connection and subscription required)
Feature highlights:
• User interface specifically designed for use underwater, action sports or other challenging environments
• Easy to use in DIVEVOLK Seatouch cases, or when using touchscreen-compatible gloves
• Perfect for scuba diving, snorkelling, watersports and sports action use
• Choose between AUTO Mode (great for casual users and beginners) and PRO Mode with full manual control
• Automatic UWACOLOR dynamically adaptive color processing gives your underwater video and photo captures more realistic color and beautiful contrast – either real-time during capture or later on by postprocessing directly in the app - also with 4k resolution, high frame rates and HDR/Rec.2020
• Includes optional built-in compass overlay for navigation, even while filming
• Easy to use Zoom functionality with three different zooming speeds
• Supports Video in all resolutions, frame rates and color spaces of the device
• Supports Photo in all resolutions and formats of the device
• Focus peaking for focus check
• Zebra for exposure check
• Record in LOG format for easier color grading in post production
• Built-in color lookup tables (LUTs)
• Import your own custom LUTs
• Manual control of exposure, focus, white balance, tint and more
• Magnifier to zoom into the preview imag, e.g. for macro captures
• Customizable shooting parameters and user interface with easy-to use menus
• User Presets to store complete setups for quick access
• Histogram in various sizes. Position, peak hold, limit configurable

Best in class
I do a lot spur of the moment picture taking and underwater photography and videography. I have been using the trial version and find this app allows you access to both photos and videos from one app. No more need for multiple apps to capture the moment. This app has lots of features for every level of photographer beginner to professional. One feature for scuba divers using their smartphone is the ability to see a compass on the screen. I can tell that this app was designed by both land and sea photographers. So far I haven’t come across any glitches. I recommend this app for everyone to replace your phone’s camera. Update: I have used this app for a couple of years now. This app is how all apps should be developed and maintained. I enjoy the features and especially the app information section. This app is for those who take a lot of land and underwater pictures and videos. If you are looking for something a little better than the iPhone camera then this isn’t for you. As long as the developers continue to put out this app at the level they have I’m fine with the pricing.

Hideous watermark even not using UWACOLOR
What’s good: The interface is nice in either full auto or Pro mode - there seems to be genuine consideration as to the ergonomics of the app through a diving case. What’s not: Watermark & pricing model. I was hoping to find a camera interface more suited to snorkelling - I don’t have this specific case, just wanted a camera app with standard features that’s more usable underwater than the stock Apple app. I’d pay a few bucks for a PERMANENT license for this - I don’t need pro features, I don’t want correction and absolutely have no interest in any visual intelligence features while underwater. If you made a simple “big buttons” app without all the unnecessary features and made it a one-time purchase for $10 I’d buy it now. Instead my options here are to either pay a ludicrous subscription for something I’ll likely use twice a year or have a gargantuan, hideous watermark that is present at all times - yes, even with UWACOLOR turned off. Frustrating.
